PortablePartitions.com, by Versare, has announced that several of their popular room dividers, privacy screens, and portable partitions are now custom-designable, offering customers an option to create or upload a design, logo, or image to be printed across the divider of their choice. The in-browser design lab allows single or double-sided partition printing, in addition to a variety of design options, such as color, font style, clipart, or image uploading.
The design lab feature can be found on a selection of customizable room dividers marked with an orange badge. Within a product's page, a customer may select "Create Your Own Design," and then pick a size. From there, they are taken to a design site, where options such as color, fonts, and clipart are selectable, in addition to an option to upload their own artwork. Anything from corporate logos to wallpaper patterns can be printed onto the fabric, allowing Versare room dividers to incorporate seamlessly into any office, home, classroom, retail store, hospital, warehouse, or anywhere else requiring a partition to divide space.
Many schools and daycares have utilized the design lab to create murals for classroom dividers, while offices have ordered partition panels with printed corporate logos. Matching wallpaper patterns have been popular design choices for home privacy screens. "With our new in-browser design lab, customers not only have the freedom to pick any color possible, but may also create patterns, designs, and upload logos to advertise their brand," states Versare president Robert Jantschek. "The possibilities are endless, and personalizing a room divider has never been easier."
Versare's room dividers and portable partition panels are built of tackable, sound-dampening acoustical fabric. The aluminum frames are both durable and lightweight, allowing for maximum portability. Partitions such as The Room Divider 360 have been popular choices for school partitions, while The Privacy Screen and Afford-A-Wall have remained top sellers as apartment room dividers for homes. The custom design option is also available on two economical, fabric privacy screens: the VP6 and VP4, providing a range of options that covers most price points.

Emergency room visits have quadrupled over the last few years in Tioga.
CEO Randall Pederson says the $8.2 million dollar expansion and remodel at Tioga Medical Center was important to meeting the needs of the growing city.
The addition is now under construction which will accommodate six provider offices and 16 exam rooms.
The new construction will replace the existing clinic -- which is currently detached to the south of the hospital.
Tioga currently has one full time family practice physician and four mid-level providers.
Pederson says splitting the staff between two buildings became inefficient as demand for medical services has grown.
(Randall Pederson, CEO Tioga Medical Center) "With that many ER visits, we were having some problems with doctors having to leave the clinic to come up here and meet the patients in the emergency room. At 600 visits per year, it was a doable thing, but when it's 2400 visits a year, we just need to do something different."
A new ambulance bay is included in the new addition and the old ambulance bay will be remodeled to add two emergency exam rooms.
The hospital and nursing home are already under one roof -- and Pederson says the clinic is the 'final piece of the puzzle.'
(Randall Pederson, CEO Tioga Medical Center) "This is a major event in Tioga. This is an $8.2 million dollar addition to our facility and we feel it's needed to meet the continuing needs of the community and surrounding areas and we look forward to getting everything under one roof and take care of people."

FORT WAYNE Construction on the $98 million Skyline project has officially begun.
Officials from Ash Brokerage, developer Hanning & Bean and numerous city government entities held a groundbreaking Thursday to kick off work for a massive commercial, retail and residential project that will cover most of a city block between Wayne and Berry, Harrison and Webster streets downtown.
Ash Brokerage is planning an eight-story, 95,000-square-foot, $29 million headquarters on the site. The company will move its 200 employees to the new building and add 115 more.
Also in the project is a $30 million, 17-story residential tower of 100 townhomes, apartments and condos by Hanning & Bean Enterprises. Both projects will sit on top of a city-owned 1,200-space parking garage, which will be surrounded by street-level retail.
The Ash Brokerage office tower will be known as Ash Skyline Plaza, while the residential tower will be called Skyline Terrace.
Surrounded by a bulldozer, excavators and a crane armed with a wrecking ball, officials donned hard hats and turned ceremonial shovels of dirt to celebrate the start of construction.
Once again, its a great day in the city of Fort Wayne, Mayor Tom Henry said, beaming. I cant even put into words how much I appreciate all you have done.
Tim Ash, president and CEO of Ash Brokerage, said its hard to believe the project is really happening.
Its not about Ash Brokerage, its about our city. We hope others are inspired to want to do more, Ash said.
Were going to make this community proud.

Construction on Highway 36, which resumed this spring, is affectin area businesses differently. Some are seeing declines in sales, but others are not. (Gazette staff photo by Jonathan Young)
Businesses along state Highway 36 between Washington/Norelle Avenue and Highway. 95 offer mixed reports on the effects of the construction. While some businesses simply note minor inconveniences to customers, others recognize a noticeable decrease in sales.
Richard Rose of Rose Floral and Greenhouse sees no significant negative effects from the construction.
Its been a lot of inconvenience but nothing really big, Rose said.
Since the road is still open, customers figuring out how to navigate to the business is the main challenge. It can look confusing, he added.
A couple businesses, such as Phils Tara Hideaway and Acapulco Restaurante Mexicano, herald local support as key during this time. They say loyal customers have kept them from feeling a significant negative impact.
Nik Barbatsis, manager at Phils Tara Hideaway, said. I think the community is doing a great job of supporting the businesses along the highway, Barbatsis said.
Getting to the restaurant is a little tricky but still possible.
People are pretty clever, Barbatsis said.
Harrel Perez of Acapulco Restaurante Mexicano noticed pros and cons from the construction. He appreciated the construction workers who stop in for meals, and the continued support of the Stillwater community.

Construction on Highway 36 causing drop in sales for some businesses but not all
Juleps New Southern Cuisine is leaving Shockoe Bottom and moving to East Grace Street downtown.
Owner Amy Ayers said Thursday night before the restaurants 11th anniversary celebration that the restaurant will move to the former Shields Shoes store at 420 E. Grace St.
She hopes to finish construction on the building by the end of 2014 and open Juleps in its new location by March 1. The restaurant will remain open at its current location until the move.
Were going from one historic building to another, Ayers said.
Ayers bought the three-story Shields building with Tom Dickey and Chris Johnson, principals of The Monument Companies. The first floor will hold the 128-seat restaurant, up from 74 seats in the current location. Eight apartments will be built on the second and third floors.
Ayers will remain sole owner of Juleps, which will rent the space from the three-person partnership. The Monument Companies will handle construction.
The partnership 420 E Grace Richmond LLC bought the property for $630,000, according to the commercial real estate firm CBRE|Richmond, whose agents represented the seller and the buyer.
Juleps will be next door to Pasture, which has served Southern-focused food since chef-owner Jason Alley and co-owners Michele Jones and Ry Marchant opened the restaurant in 2011.
Like Juleps new digs, a storefront that once catered to downtown shoppers houses Pasture. The restaurant is the former home of the high-end womens clothier Montaldos.
When she was fresh out of college, Ayers worked at Downtown Presents, which had been Richmonds urban festival promoter. One of her tasks was to hang event posters in the windows of downtown retailers.

Waterloo, Ontario (PRWEB) June 11, 2014
Noise Pollution is a growing global urban problem. The World Health Organization (WHO) says it seriously harms human health. An interesting statistic from the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association estimates that 30 million Americans are exposed to dangerous noise levels on a regular basis.
Noise pollution can lead to hearing loss, sleep disturbances, and fatigue headaches. Inside or outside communities are working to make changes. An interesting case study has recently happened in the restaurant industry.
Reducing Noise Pollution can be simple in small spaces. A good example is Taco Farm, an innovative restaurant in Waterloo, Ontario. It opened less than a year ago. It had delicious food, excellent service and a cool location, but customers and staff were struggling with the noise levels.
We take feedback from our customers seriously, says Ryan Good, Taco Farm co-owner. Taco Farm has a great atmosphere, but the sound was reverberating off the high flat ceiling making it very difficult to hear. Our staff were complaining about headaches and we knew we had to do something.
Ryan Good called Conestoga-Rovers & Associates, industry experts in noise reduction, Tim Wiens and Joey Jraige. Sound softening techniques are mostly used in large theatre spaces, but Wiens says more businesses and restaurants are looking to the engineers. We are interested in designing smarter spaces, and sound is a big part of that.
The Conestoga-Rovers & Associates team used a sound technique that is traditionally used in theatre spaces to decrease the sound in crowded areas.
The acoustic absorbing panels reduced the reverberation time by 30%. Reverberation makes hearing incredibly difficult because an overlapping of speech sounds occurs. That significantly reduces speech intelligibility.
The panels blend in with the hip dcor at Taco Farm, and most people dont even notice them. What they will notice is that they dont have to shout to speak to the person next to them. We call it speech privacy, explains Tim Wiens.
The effect has been dramatic. Our staff and customers noticed immediately. Anything we can do to make someones dining experience better is great, says Ryan Good.
